Went down to my local GC for the first time since I move to Cleveland to see what they had for fretlesses. Slim pickin's, to say the least, but there was a beautiful Pedulla Pentabuzz for $2400 that I really liked. I played it for about an hour, didn't get hassled by employees, only one obnoxious guitarist playing in the room; a very good GC trip if you ask me. When the money fairy next pays me a visit I may get one, or order a Hexabuzz.

Now the best part of the trip; I was in the pedal section looking at a Boss GT-6B, and my girlfriend decided to buy it for me on the spot (that's a pretty big deal; we are NOT rich people). What a sweetie! I'm currently enrolling in a rocket engineering program just so I can figure out how to operate the dang thing, but it's really fun so far.

Recently my wife stated I could by a nice bass such as a Fodera. I was just talking about what nice basses they are and she just said "Well if you want to get one, get it". I'm having a hard time justifying the purchase. I don't know if I can go thru with it. But it's nice to know my wife supports me.

She sounds like a keeper.

Yea, that's the beauty of it. But I can't seem to justify the purchase. It sounds nice and I could do it. But there are other things I could use the money for. I'm thinking of maybe getting a Ric 4003 though. Still a nice bass but not with the 4G price tag. Or if Icould find a good deal on a used Fodera.
I don't know I'm kinda really fighting with this one.

Keep an eye on bassgear.com and don't get in a rush. They have a lot of primo basses come through there including Foderas. You probably already know this but I just thought I'd mention it in case you don't visit bassgear.com much.

Thanks for the tip.
I check it once in awhile, but probably not enough.
